Important Notice...  Our closest city on the mainland is Sihanoukville (map), which sadly resembles one giant casino construction zone at the moment.  Yes, it is home to several long, incredibly beautiful white sand beaches; However getting to/from those beaches is not a pleasant experience for the time being (and likely through out 2024).

​

1.  Thus we highly recommend that our guests time their travel through Sihanoukville to avoid any layovers in Sihanoukville.  Fortunately, this is fairly easy to do if arriving in Sihanoukville by mid-afternoon and departing the island after check-out. 

2.  It is important to take only Island Speed Ferry or Romny Ferry to Paradise (Soonoeng) Pier in Saracen Bay, on Koh Rong Sanloem (not Koh Rong).

 

TRANSIT OPTIONS TO/FROM SIHANOUKVILLE...

 

A. Car Service via Phnom Phen -- In November 2022, Cambodia opened a brand new US$2 billion E4 expressway (info) from the Phnom Phen airport (IATA Code: PHN) to Sihanoukville's ferry pier.  It is a modern, safe & enjoyable 2-hour smooth ride from PHN airport (add extra time if from Phnom Phen city center).    Email us and we will be happy to confirm car service to meet your flight at PHN, or hotel pickup in Phnom Phen, directly to the Sihanoukville ferry pier to Koh Rong Sanloem.  No need to pay anything to the driver, you can settle the charge with us at check-out.

​

B. Flights via Sihanoukville -- Flights to/from Sihanoukville airport (IATA Code: KOS) have not yet returned to pre-Covid levels & options due to the convenience of the new expressway.  Flights remain limited in number with connections usually only from Siem Reap or Saigon (flights info). 

​

C. Car Service via Kep or Kampot -- Hotel pickups from Kep or Kampot are common, and take you directly to the Sihanoukville ferry pier to Koh Rong Sanloem.  Other cities and even border crossing are also available with enough advance booking.  No need to pay anything to the driver, you can settle the charge with us at check-out.

​

FERRY SERVICES TO OUR ISLAND....  Island Speed Ferry or Rumny Ferry

​

Important... We need to know which ferry you will take, so that our shuttle boat can meet your ferry and our staff can carry your luggage for you.   If you forget to inform us in advance, then we ask that 1 member stay with your luggage at the pier and the other(s) walk along the white sand beach to get us (~10-min walk from Paradise Pier).

​

i.  We are happy to book your ferry to the island, if you contact us with enough advance notice!  There is no extra charge, and you can settle the cost for Romny Ferry with us at check-out, however Island Speed Ferry must be paid to them prior to boarding the boat.

​

ii. No problem if you prefer to book yourself, but do remember to inform us of your arrival in advance so our friendly staff will be waiting for you on arrival to help with your luggage, but AVOID the 3 other ferry companies servicing Saracen Bay - at Eden, Freedom & Rumi piers - which are long hard walks to Sol Beach Resort (see below.)
